In our day and age, I have noticed, and please correct me if I am wrong, that some people including Christians do not take God’s commands or doctrines very seriously.


Some people think that when the new covenant, the covenant of grace, came into effect, God stopped caring about doctrine. Some feel that doctrine is insignificant in the new covenant, only serving and loving God’s people are what’s important today.





Brethren, I am a firm believer that serving and loving God’s people are important. However, obeying God’s commands and doctrines are very important as well. In fact, not only are we going to be judged on our service to others, but we will also be judged on how faithful we are in following the Word of God.


(1) According to ( Gal. 1:9 ), people who distort the Word of God will be eternally condemned.


(2) According to ( 2 Pet. 2:1-3; 3:16 ), people who distort the Word of God will bring upon themselves destruction.


(3) We must never intentionally distort the Word of God to satisfy our human and worldly beliefs. If we do, we are jeopardizing our souls.


(4) If we distort or disobey a commandment of God, we commit sin ( 1 Jn. 3:4 ). And you know, as well as I know that sin is a very serious offense.



(5) When God gives us a command, we need to do our very best to follow it. We need to start taking God’s commands more seriously. In the Bible, when people disobeyed God’s instructions, they were punished.

For ur mind, u have made so much sense...

in what way have i not

Just because there is Grace doesn't give us an express ticket to sin, however, its called GRACE for a reason.

When there is grace, it ceases to be about works i.e how holy you are or how righteous.

When GRACE is mentioned, emphasis shifts to JESUS.

The fact that he actually died on the cross makes all the difference.

I pray your eyes open eventually.

Oh I pray.

Are there also consequences when God disobeys his promise/word? Like his numerous promises for those that keep his word and unanswered prayers? Or we do our own part and excempt God of fufillung his own part of the bergain?

Amen

If anything you said were true then the numerous preachers in Nigeria who play on the stupidity of their flock would have perished many moons ago.

Alas, they are still here and thriving financially.

The same is true of the Catholic Church that has sold prayers in exchange for fiat currency for centuries.

No amount of prayer will help some. Many of dem will remain that way otherwise the prophecies will become unfulfilled.

The Arab controls our mind even more with their own religion that OBLIGES their followers to visit Mecca to get into heaven.

Beside how does one know God's word
Or more appropriately, which God is the one whose word should not be disobeyed?
The Christian, Muslim, African traditional religion, Buddhist, Hindu etc God

22 Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill, and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious.

23 For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, To The Unknown God. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you.
